Chelsea vs Newcastle – Team News

Chelsea face Newcastle at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

Frank Lampard has put Callum Hudson-Odoi straight back into the team following his fantastic display for the England U21s in the week.

N’Golo Kante is replaced by Ross Barkley, thanks to his injury, and it’s a 442 with Christensen’s injury meaning Zouma and Tomori at the back.

Once again, Pedro has been left off the bench entirely, with Christian Pulisic the wide option on there, with two strikers. Reece James is fit enough to be a sub too, after his own international break scare.

Marc Guehi also pops up. It would only take one injury to see him on the pitch! But let’s hope it doesn’t come to that. The last thing this Chelsea team needs is injuries.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Newcastle (kick off at 15:00 pm BST):
